Dragons vs. Sea Eagles Predictions

The NRL continues with Round 6 action between the Dragons vs. Sea Eagles on Friday, April 10 at 6:00pm at WIN Stadium.

Money has come for the Sea Eagles, who opened at –5.5 before firming considerably into –7.5 with the latest NRL odds.

Best Bet

Sea Eagles –7.5 @ $1.90

We would have preferred to lock in the –5.5 line, but we still have the Sea Eagles covering the spread against a struggling Dragons outfit.

The Dragons have yet to win this season, and they are front runners for the wooden spoon. Their on-field attitude leaves little to be desired, and that’s a big worry for the Dragons, who face a resurgent Sea Eagles on Friday.

The Sea Eagles were struggling with three consecutive losses, which led to their coach being sacked, but they lifted for their new coach last week with a 52-18 thrashing of the Dolphins. It was a masterclass in rugby league, and a repeat effort would be enough to put up a big number on the Dragons.

Our NRL predictions have the Sea Eagles winning by 10-12 points, so we’re locking in the –7.5 line.

Sea Eagles –7.5, Lehi Hopoate Anytime Try Scorer, Jason Saab Anytime Try Scorer, Over 49.5 @ $8.00

Lehi Hopoate is growing in confidence following a two-try effort against the Dolphins, and his energy levels are always high. He could be rewarded with a try against the Dragons, and punters get a respectable $1.75.

Jason Saab hasn’t scored in a long time, which is surprising. A player with his speed should be scoring tries, but he could turn things around. Punters get $1.84, and he is a player worth following until he scores.

Defence could take a back seat, which is why NRL odds have the line at 49.5 points. Our final score prediction has the Sea Eagles winning 32-20.

Best Value Bet

Lehi Hopoate First Try Scorer @ $8.50

Bet Now

Our NRL predictions have Hopoate scoring the opening try, which would set an early tone for the Sea Eagles.

After winning easily last week, the Sea Eagles will want to come out strongly and put pressure on the Dragons to play from behind. One of their best attacking players is Hopoate, who rarely has a bad game, and we have him being rewarded with the opening try at $8.50.
